2022 was another big year for Shockwave and Q4 was no exception! On Twitter, the first Shockwave L6 cases were posted by physicians who participated in its limited release and it was great to see their excitement for our new large-vessel peripheral IVL catheter launching soon in the U.S.! At VIVA ‘22, Dr. Ehrin Armstrong presented the final 1,373 patient cohort data from the Disrupt PAD III Observational Study; this larger patient data set reinforces the predictability of Shockwave IVL and its ability to consistently modify calcium across vessel beds, challenging lesions and complex patients. Additionally, international calcium experts shared their real-world experiences with the safety and efficacy of coronary IVL across different calcium morphologies, including concentric, eccentric and nodular calcium. Check out that and more in the new PulsePoint Newsletter!

It was smooth sailing for Shockwave this summer! Thank you to everyone who made Q3 unforgettable; but before we get cozy for the holidays, let’s reflect on the events that made the quarter one to remember. This year’s TCT was particularly momentous, as we announced the first prospective, female-only study of coronary interventions, EMPOWER CAD. We also explored tips and tricks for IVL with guide extension catheter usage with Dr. Stephan Heo and debated different approaches to modifying nodular calcium with an expert panel. Read up on the latest Shockwave IVL peer-written publications and more in the Q3 PulsePoint Newsletter.
